What a wonderful, historical account of the Hurricane of Galveston, Texas back in 1900. Though the main character's story is fictional, what happened to the town and its people are true. Beautifully written, it will move you to tears. The book is told and seen through the eyes of a teenage boy.
Hopes and dreams fly and float away. After you read the story, there is a section in the back of the book showing images of the real devastation that occurred back then.
Highly recommended!
